🚀 Meet Our Growth Engine As we continue to expand our customer base, we’re also growing our team to support that growth. Meet Konstantina (@somalakidi) and Miguel (@michaelormiguel), our new account executives, who joined us back in October. Led by none other than our own @EricLiefting, they are here to take Crowny to new heights. With their years of experience, passion, and dedication, they are already onboarding early bird clients. They are setting the stage for rapid expansion. Now, we're opening the doors wider. Ready to see how Crowny can transform your @Shopify brand’s loyalty strategy? Book a demo and take advantage of our free trial and early bird offer.

🚨 Crowny Wins in 2026 We've been building since 2020. Quietly. Deliberately. Now, our social media module is approved by @Meta. For the first time, brands can verify real engagement and reward accordingly, all on top of @solana. Get the full breakdown 👇 crowny.io/blog/updates/crown…

🎄 Merry Christmas from the Crowny team! 2025 was heads-down, all build, no noise. January is when the real fun begins 👀 Enjoy the holidays. We’ll see you soon.

Development update 📈 We built a web app and tested it with our community 👇 TL;DR: the same Crowny experience, now available in your browser. Faster access, quicker onboarding, and fewer barriers for new users. We tested it with our core community: overall feedback was very positive, and several improvements are already underway. 🎯Over the past weeks, we invited a select group of community members to test it. We focused testing on core flows such as registration, point earning, deal redemption, and tier progression. 💡For brands, having a web version alongside the mobile app means faster onboarding and more flexible touchpoints for engagement. It allows loyalty programs to be integrated more seamlessly, without requiring customers to download an app first. 👑It also means we can run more A/B tests and iterate faster. We run the same loyalty system as in the mobile app: operating on @solana, so completely on-chain and entirely behind the scenes. App users won’t even know they’re using it. Some testing insights: ☑️All testers successfully created an account and earned points. Most also spent their points in the app, and/or unlocked a tier upgrade. Onboarding was rated 4.5 out of 5 for ease of use. One tester summed it up: "So far so good. Everything smooth and no problem." 📨Some users had trouble with confirmation emails landing in spam or certain links not opening properly inside in-app browsers. We’re already working on solutions to make that experience more consistent across devices. 💬 We received positive responses about our Tiers feature, which lets users level up based on actions like spending and earning points. One person noted: "The tier system is good and easy to understand at a glance and the bonuses give a strong incentive to reach the next tier level". That said, a few users weren’t sure how to track their tier status or understand the upgrade criteria. Adding more interactive in-app guidance is on our radar. ❗To be clear: the mobile apps are still a key part of our roadmap. They offer a more complete experience and unlock more opportunities for deeper engagement and long-term brand growth. We’re planning to open up testing access more broadly. That includes our social media module, where users can earn points for actions like liking and sharing posts. Thanks to everyone who tested with us. This is where the real fun begins, and we’re bringing everyone along for the ride!
